I cant agree more, sometimes you have to be selfish but what you have told us is just a phase. Please stay strong threw it and remember better days will come.

I SINCERELY hope this is hypothetical my friend!!!!!
That being said..
There are times in anyone's life where being selfish is not only okay, it should be expected. I believe the scenario you have presented is just such an instance.
I would expect my family to understand and support me if that were the case in my life..

Would it be wrong to tell family that you have something incurable and that you were heading out on one last adventure? That you don't want a funeral?

Not exactly on subject but I went to two funerals last year and in both cases the deceased did not want to have a funeral but the families went against those wishes and had open casket funerals. I thought it was wrong to go against the last wishes of the person . Any thoughts on that?

I think we should also remember that psychologically speaking, the funeral is NOT for the one that has passed away. Funerals are for the living; for those close to the deceased in order to get closure.
